What Is Home Watch?

More than checking the locks.

Home watch is a professional property inspection service for homeowners who spend time away from their Maine property — whether that's a few weeks in the summer or the entire off-season.

A home watch professional visits your property on a regular schedule, conducts a thorough interior and exterior inspection, and sends you a written report with photos. If something needs attention — a slow leak, a failed sump pump, storm damage — you hear about it immediately, not when you arrive to find a disaster.

In mid-coast Maine, where salt air, hard winters, and seasonal vacancy create real risks, home watch isn't a luxury. It's how you protect your investment.

Every Visit

What's included in every home watch visit

A thorough inspection, a written report, and a direct line to someone who can fix what we find.

Interior & Exterior Inspection

Every visit covers the full property — roof, foundation, windows, doors, HVAC, plumbing, appliances, and all exterior surfaces. Nothing gets skipped.

Written Report with Photos

After every visit you receive a detailed written report with timestamped photos. You see exactly what we saw — no guessing, no vague updates.

Storm Damage Checks

After any significant weather event we do an unscheduled check and report back. Maine storms move fast — we make sure you know the condition of your property before damage compounds.

HVAC, Plumbing & Appliance Monitoring

Frozen pipes, failed sump pumps, and HVAC issues are the most common — and most expensive — problems in vacant homes. We catch them early.

Vendor Coordination & Property Access

Need a contractor, plumber, or delivery to access your home while you're away? We coordinate access, supervise the work, and report back.

Why It Matters Here

Mid-coast Maine is hard on vacant homes.

Salt air accelerates rot and corrosion. Hard freezes burst pipes in homes that aren't properly monitored. Nor'easters drive water through any gap in the envelope. And a vacant property — especially a seasonal one — is a target for opportunistic break-ins and squatters.

The cost of a single missed problem — a slow leak that runs for three weeks, a failed sump pump during a spring melt, storm damage that goes unaddressed — can easily exceed years of home watch fees.

We've seen what happens when properties go unwatched. That's why we're here.
